Chapter 17: Shock and Awe I
"Is this a trap, or is it just an accident?"
As the strong man narrated, Sutum fell into thought.
Thinking of the spies locked up in the dungeon, and the fact that Talos was captured on his orders, Sutum faintly felt the smell of conspiracy.
However, at this time, his anger was surging, and his murderous intent was boiling, and he only wanted to tear the offended person to shreds.
"You go to Sauron, bring some people over here, and I'll bring Talos back later." ”
Effortlessly suppressing the killing intent, Sutum commanded at the strong man.
Moments later, Tuka returned with two strong men. After some more time, the strong man who passed the word also arrived here with ten powerful warriors under Sauron.
"With the protection of these people, there shouldn't be any problems here for a short time. ”
After a few words, he left the dwelling.
The person who captured Talos was also in the Xilin District, and belonged to one of the strange forces that had recently emerged.
These new forces are coming from other cities. Since they were able to travel through the extremely dangerous wasteland to get here, they naturally had some great strength. It's not uncommon for Talos to not be able to beat.
It's just that they chose to come to the Xilin District, and they must have known about Sutum's existence, and they also knew about the relationship between Talos and Sutum. Capturing Talos is completely challenging Sutum's dignity and bottom line.
According to the strong man, while in the slave camp, Talos seems to have met people he was familiar with. Subsequently, he was inexplicably provoked by a few words from the other party, and his emotions were out of control. Then, they clashed with each other, lost their opponents, and were taken away by them.
The strong man also escaped with the help of acquaintances in the camp and reported the news.
......
A row of houses in the distance appeared in Sutum's sight.
This is the eastern edge of the Xilin District, where it meets the central area of the Outer Ring City.
There is a large river that meanders in the vicinity, connecting all the districts of the outer ring city and forming a "moat" around the inner ring city. The house Sutum saw was built on the river.
There seemed to be a puff of water vapor in the air throughout the area, which made Sutum slightly uncomfortable.
Demons mostly love fire and heat, and hate water and humidity. Although Sutum did not reach this extent, it had some influence.
However, such an environment can give better play to his abilities.
There was a faint layer of black light flashing on his body, and between breaths, Sutum's figure disappeared.
This is [Mirror Invisibility].
The ability of [Mirror] is activated, distorting light, which can cause a certain degree of invisibility. This saves him a lot of trouble.
As the distance to the house got closer, some scenes slowly appeared in Sutum's mind.
Outside the house, near the water, there were several powerful teams entrenched and guarding each other. On closer inspection, the appearance and attire of these warriors are not consistent, but show several styles.
A squad of warriors was dressed coolly, with a stout build, seemingly dressed as sailors. The weapons are mainly three-pronged and rope-based, and the outline of his facial features bears some resemblance to Talos, and his eyes are unruly.
A group of warriors were dressed in leather armor and had short hair unusual in Barthez Heath, and their bodies were lean and stocky. With swords and shields in their hands, they were quiet and orderly.
The other team is a local warrior of Sisos City with scimitars hanging from their waists, the weakest of the three teams, with a smell of gangsters.
The three teams move within their own boundaries and do not care about each other.
Although the fire of life of these people is strong, to Sutum, they are nothing more than chickens and dogs.
Looking into the house, seven well-dressed men and women gathered around a table in a wide hall, seemingly arguing about something.
Next to the table, Talos was chained, covered in blood, and fell into a coma.
In just a moment, the state of life of these people was perceived by Sutum.
By this time, he had quietly come outside the house.
Sutum's mind moved, and he directly unlocked the stealth state, and appeared among many warriors in this way. In the house, several men and women who were arguing also felt his breath, and their expressions suddenly became extremely ugly, and they rushed out.
When the warriors outside saw Sutum appear under their noses, their eyes immediately turned red and murderous, and they surrounded him.
"Who are you?"
Some of the short-haired warriors looked at Sutum's face as cold as frost, slightly aware of the wrong, and asked cautiously. However, the other fighters ignored his actions and most of them started directly.
"Whatever he does, catch him first. ”
"Whew-"
A warrior who looked like a sailor shook it suddenly, and the thick rope in his hand brought a powerful sound of wind and rolled towards Sutum's head.
Other sailors were affected by this and launched attacks as well.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was covered with rope shadows like a net, enveloping Sutum inside.
These warriors live at sea all year round, have fought countless times, and are adept at attacking and restraining with ropes. Especially when they often face huge sea beasts together, the cooperation is even more tacit. Shooting at this moment, with a strong and incomparable confidence, it seems that Sutum is going to fall into the net in the next moment.
Seeing that the rope was approaching, Sutum suddenly grabbed it with his hand, and several ropes were gathered into one force and fell into his hands.
Before these fighters could react, he pulled and flung his hand, and the soldiers holding the rope rolled on the ground one after another, and were thrown out of a distance of seven or eight meters.
"Thorn!"
Another warrior carried three prongs and stabbed Sutum in the chest.
Sutum's expression was cold, and with a shake of his body, he appeared behind the warrior, grabbed the opponent's neck, and crushed it with a click.
Spurred on by blood and death, the remaining warriors no longer waited and swarmed up.
For a while, the swords collided, the fists hit the flesh, and the terrible screams were endless.
Those who want to hurt me will be hurt, and those who want to kill me will die.
Sutum's attack was swift and vicious.
As long as he moves, he will not hesitate to kill. In addition, it is to be seriously injured, so that the other party has no power to fight back.
It's a long story, but it's a short time. From the time he appeared to fight these warriors, it was only a little more than ten breaths. By the time everyone in the house came out, Sutum was dealing with the last man.
"Stop!"
A young man with a wild and rugged face and a sea dragon tattooed on his chest roared loudly.
Before the words fell, Sutum was the only one left on the field, standing proudly.
There was a river of blood all around, and it was a mess.
"Die!"
The young man looked like a madman.
I saw the blue light flickering on his body, and with a wave of his arms, there was a sound of "snort" in the air.
Sutum sensed two invisible air currents coming towards him, so his body shook slightly, avoiding the side.
Two blades of wind passed through his location, slicing through a large tree the size of a bucket in the distance.
"This is the power that controls the wind?"
Sutum's eyes flickered, and a wave of excitement gradually rose.
After some fighting and killing, the negative emotions that had accumulated in his body had been vented a lot, and he completely regained his senses.
Seeing Sutum easily dodge the attack, the wild young man was even more furious. The blue light on his body gradually condensed, and countless runes circulated in the blue light. The air currents throughout the precinct began to riot.
Sutum's mirror eyes had already probed the details of the other party, which was far more than the [Hero] level of life breath.
This young man is a true [prophet] level powerhouse.
